Former student activist Netiwit Chotiphatphaisal, renowned for his outspoken protests against the Thai establishment, is back in the media spotlight as an award-winning filmmaker.

 

“The Last Breath of Sam Yan”, which Netiwit co-produced and appeared in, earned the nod for “Best Documentary Film” at the 2023 Suphannahong Awards, presented by the National Federation of Motion Pictures and Contents Associations last Monday (September 30).


The 75-minute-long film tells the story of a campaign by students and locals to save a century-old Chinese shrine from demolition in Bangkok’s Sam Yan neighbourhood.
